    cucv glow plug controler and 12v conversion

    In a stock truck, the resistor combined with the glow plugs cause a drop from 24 to 12 volts. When you are only supplying it with 12 volts, it drops closer to 6 volts(not good). So, with the elimination of the resistors, you send 12v and get 12 volts. All is good like this.

    cucv glow plug controler and 12v conversion

    Post # 13 said where it is. Follow the supply wire, and see if there is a large resistor set inline. Post a picture of your firewall or open a technical manual and look at the pictures to identify it. Also a search on this site may help.

    M818 winch question

    What engine rpm are you at while winching? Are you driving the wheels at the same time? Are you pulling with a single line?

    cucv glow plug controler and 12v conversion

    It does not sound bad to me. It sounds like you have the resistor bank still installed. It needs to be eliminated. when you convert to 12volts. The system switches ground to the relay to activate it.
